7113afc84c 10Gigabit Ethernet driver for AMD SoC
This patch has the driver for 10Gigabit Ethernet controller in AMD
SoC. This driver is written compatible to the Iflib framework. The
existing driver is for the old version of hardware. The submitted
driver here is for the recent versions of the hardware where the Ethernet
controller is PCI-E based.

f9ba2bbe3a Use envvar rather than nonstandard hint. lines
The NOTES files have a bunch of hint lines that are removed when
generating LINT. However, we can achieve the same effect by prepending
each of the lines with 'envvar' so the NOTES files become standard
config(8) files. No functional changes as the sed script to generate
the LINT files filters these either way.

71d104536b ice(4): Introduce new driver for Intel E800 Ethernet controllers
The ice(4) driver is the driver for the Intel E8xx series Ethernet
controllers; currently with codenames Columbiaville and
Columbia Park.

These new controllers support 100G speeds, as well as introducing
more queues, better virtualization support, and more offload
capabilities. Future work will enable virtual functions (like
in ixl(4)) and the other functionality outlined above.

For full functionality, the kernel should be compiled with
"device ice_ddp" like in the amd64 NOTES file, and/or
ice_ddp_load="YES" should be added to /boot/loader.conf so that
the DDP package file included in this commit can be downloaded
to the adapter. Otherwise, the adapter will fall back to a single
queue mode with limited functionality.

A man page for this driver will be forthcoming.

d8c51c6f74 [aacraid] Port driver to big-endian
Port aacraid driver to big-endian (BE) hosts.

The immediate goal of this change is to make it possible to use the
aacraid driver on PowerPC64 machines that have Adaptec Series 8 SAS
controllers.

Adapters supported by this driver expect FIB contents in little-endian
(LE) byte order. All FIBs have a fixed header part as well as a data
part that depends on the command being issued to the controller.

In this way, on BE hosts, the FIB header and all FIB data structures
used in aacraid.c and aacraid_cam.c need to be converted to LE before
being sent to the adapter and converted to BE when coming from it.

The functions to convert each struct are on aacraid_endian.c.
For little-endian (LE) targets, they are macros that expand
to nothing.
In some cases, when only a few fields of a large structure are used,
the fields are converted inline, by the code using them.

f2521a76ed This driver attaches to the Intel VMD drive and connects a new PCI domain
starting at the max. domain, and then work down.  Then existing FreeBSD
drivers will attach.  Interrupt routing from the VMD MSI-X to the NVME
drive is not well known, so any interrupt is sent to all children that
register.

VROC used Intel meta data so graid(8) works with it. However, graid(8)
supports RAID 0,1,10 for read and write. I have some early code to
support writes with RAID 5.  Note that RAID 5 can have life issues
with SSDs since it can cause write amplification from updating the parity
data.

Hot plug support needs a change to skip the following check to work:
	if (pcib_request_feature(dev, PCI_FEATURE_HP) != 0) {
in sys/dev/pci/pci_pci.c.

1a13f2e6b4 Introduce stats(3), a flexible statistics gathering API.
This provides a framework to define a template describing
a set of "variables of interest" and the intended way for
the framework to maintain them (for example the maximum, sum,
t-digest, or a combination thereof).  Afterwards the user
code feeds in the raw data, and the framework maintains
these variables inside a user-provided, opaque stats blobs.
The framework also provides a way to selectively extract the
stats from the blobs.  The stats(3) framework can be used in
both userspace and the kernel.

See the stats(3) manual page for details.

This will be used by the upcoming TCP statistics gathering code,
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D20655.

The stats(3) framework is disabled by default for now, except
in the NOTES kernel (for QA); it is expected to be enabled
in amd64 GENERIC after a cool down period.

e3722b788e add superio driver
The goal of this driver is consolidate information about SuperIO chips
and to provide for peaceful coexistence of drivers that need to access
SuperIO configuration registers.

While SuperIO chips can host various functions most of them are
discoverable and accessible without any knowledge of the SuperIO.
Examples are: keyboard and mouse controllers, UARTs, floppy disk
controllers.  SuperIO-s also provide non-standard functions such as
GPIO, watchdog timers and hardware monitoring.  Such functions do
require drivers with a knowledge of a specific SuperIO.

At this time the driver supports a number of ITE and Nuvoton (fka
Winbond) SuperIO chips.
There is a single driver for all devices.  So, I have not done the usual
split between the hardware driver and the bus functionality.  Although,
superio does act as a bus for devices that represent known non-standard
functions of a SuperIO chip.  The bus provides enumeration of child
devices based on the hardcoded knowledge of such functions.  The
knowledge as extracted from datasheets and other drivers.
As there is a single driver, I have not defined a kobj interface for it.
So, its interface is currently made of simple functions.
I think that we can the flexibility (and complications) when we actually
need it.

I am planning to convert nctgpio and wbwd to superio bus very soon.
Also, I am working on itwd driver (watchdog in ITE SuperIO-s).
Additionally, there is ithwm driver based on the reverted sensors
import, but I am not sure how to integrate it given that we still lack
any sensors interface.

This commit also re-adds the VF driver to GENERIC since it now compiles and

The VF driver name was changed from ixlv(4) to iavf(4) because the VF driver is
now intended to be used with future products, not just with Fortville/Fort Park
VFs.

It's anticipated that after the freeze, this will be removed in

radeon drivers).

Due to the impending freeze, there was no formal core vote for

configuration (not using a module) is still silently deprecated in

Sort its entry better.

Finish gzip configuration (but not support) for amd64.  gzip is really
gzipped aout.  It is currently broken even for i386 (a call to vm fails).
amd64 has always attempted to configure and test it, but it depends on
COMPAT_AOUT (as noted).  The bug that it depends on unconfigured files
was not detected since it is configured as a device.  All other optional
image activators are configured properly using an option.

24f93aa05f imcsmb(4): Intel integrated Memory Controller (iMC) SMBus controller driver
imcsmb(4) provides smbus(4) support for the SMBus controller functionality
in the integrated Memory Controllers (iMCs) embedded in Intel Sandybridge-
Xeon, Ivybridge-Xeon, Haswell-Xeon, and Broadwell-Xeon CPUs. Each CPU
implements one or more iMCs, depending on the number of cores; each iMC
implements two SMBus controllers (iMC-SMBs).

*** IMPORTANT NOTE ***
Because motherboard firmware or the BMC might try to use the iMC-SMBs for
monitoring DIMM temperatures and/or managing an NVDIMM, the driver might
need to temporarily disable those functions, or take a hardware interlock,
before using the iMC-SMBs. Details on how to do this may vary from board to
board, and the procedure may be proprietary. It is strongly suggested that
anyone wishing to use this driver contact their motherboard vendor, and
modify the driver as described in the manual page and in the driver itself.
(For what it's worth, the driver as-is has been tested on various SuperMicro
motherboards.)

Refresh upstream driver before impending conversion to iflib.

Major new features:

- Support for I2C reads/writes

(To prevent getting or sending corrupt data, you should set
dev.ixl.0.debug.disable_fw_link_management=1 when using I2C
[this will disable link!], then set it to 0 when done. The driver implements
the SIOCGI2C ioctl, so ifconfig -v works for reading I2C data,
but there are read_i2c and write_i2c sysctls under the .debug sysctl tree
[the latter being useful for upper page support in QSFP+]).

- Addition of an iWARP client interface (so the future iWARP driver for
  X722 devices can communicate with the base driver).
  - Compiling this option in is enabled by default, with "options IXL_IW" in

bc3ad3a179 Add kernel interfaces to call EFI Runtime Services.
Runtime services require special execution environment for the call.
Besides that, OS must inform firmware about runtime virtual memory map
which will be active during the calls, with the SetVirtualAddressMap()
runtime call, done while the 1:1 mapping is still used.  There are two
complication: the SetVirtualAddressMap() effectively must be done from
loader, which needs to know kernel address map in advance.  More,
despite not explicitely mentioned in the specification, both 1:1 and
the map passed to SetVirtualAddressMap() must be active during the
SetVirtualAddressMap() call.  Second, there are buggy BIOSes which
require both mappings active during runtime calls as well, most likely
because they fail to identify all relocations to perform.

On amd64, we can get rid of both problems by providing 1:1 mapping for
the duration of runtime calls, by temprorary remapping user addresses.
As result, we avoid the need for loader to know about future kernel
address map, and avoid bugs in BIOSes.  Typically BIOS only maps
something in low 4G.  If not runtime bugs, we would take advantage of
the DMAP, as previous versions of this patch did.

Similar but more complicated trick can be used even for i386 and 32bit
runtime, if and when the EFI boot on i386 is supported.  We would need
a trampoline page, since potentially whole 4G of VA would be switched
on calls, instead of only userspace portion on amd64.

Context switches are disabled for the duration of the call, FPU access
is granted, and interrupts are not disabled.  The later is possible
because kernel is mapped during calls.

To test, the sysctl mib debug.efi_time is provided, setting it to 1
makes one call to EFI get_time() runtime service, on success the efitm
structure is printed to the control terminal.  Load efirt.ko, or add
EFIRT option to the kernel config, to enable code.

22f2f875ad Make execution of 32-bit CloudABI executables work on amd64.
A nice thing about requiring a vDSO is that it makes it incredibly easy
to provide full support for running 32-bit processes on 64-bit systems.
Instead of letting the kernel be responsible for composing/decomposing
64-bit arguments across multiple registers/stack slots, all of this can
now be done in the vDSO. This means that there is no need to provide
duplicate copies of certain system calls, like the sys_lseek() and
freebsd32_lseek() we have for COMPAT_FREEBSD32.

This change imports a new vDSO from the CloudABI repository that has
automatically generated code in it that copies system call arguments
into a buffer, padding them to eight bytes and zero-extending any
pointers/size_t arguments. After returning from the kernel, it does the
inverse: extracting return values, in the process truncating
pointers/size_t values to 32 bits.

bus_space were unanswered.

e131ba36e8 Move 'device pci' for the PCI bus driver to the MI NOTES file.
The PCI bus was already listed in all of the MD NOTES files and the
driver should at least compile on all platforms.

e974f91c38 Import ioat(4) driver
I/OAT is also referred to as Crystal Beach DMA and is a Platform Storage
Extension (PSE) on some Intel server platforms.

This driver currently supports DMA descriptors only and is part of a
larger effort to upstream an interconnect between multiple systems using
the Non-Transparent Bridge (NTB) PSE.

For now, this driver is only built on AMD64 platforms.  It may be ported
to work on i386 later, if that is desired.  The hardware is exclusive to
x86.

Further documentation on ioat(4), including API documentation and usage,
can be found in the new manual page.

Bring in a test tool, ioatcontrol(8), in tools/tools/ioat.  The test
tool is not hooked up to the build and is not intended for end users.
